Canada is home to millions of conflict refugees (i.e. veterans) from SE Asia, northern Africa, and the Middle East. I don’t know what would happen, but I hope this would be a significant factor in any insurgency.

If conservatives ever get insane enough to actually try anything like that, understand that a fair amount of that hypothetical insurgency will be happening on the American side of the border as well. A lot of people who live near the border have a lot of Canadian ties. They would effectively consider any military action taken against Canada to be an attack on them.
Not just near the border, it's throughout the entire US. Same goes for Mexico
All I know is, there are alot of natives kinda hoping they do invade. Imagine being legally allowed to shoot white people. 😂
Wouldn't it be better if Canada or Mexico Annexed us? It would send the right kind of signals to the world... "We are cool with everyone" "we want pace". Wouldn't that work? We would gain some more political parties to diversify our political system. I'm not saying let's do it. Its just a thought experiment. At the end of the day we're all Americans inside.
Might be easier to just do the hard thing. Humans are running out of bandaid fixes at the 11th climate wise.
